For readers who just tuned in, please read this post from bottom to top as this post was written in a “Newest First” format.

2:39PM We’re off to get hands-on, and we’ll be broadcasting again soon. Thanks for joining the fun!

2:38PM Sorry folks, no iPhone 5… yet….

2:38PM Wow, that’s it!

2:38PM “I am so incredibly proud of this company and all of the teams who work so hard to bring all of the innovations you’ve seen today.”

2:37PM “Now, when you look at each of these, they’re great and fantastic and industry leading in and of themselves…” Tim is slowing down. Things are building up. “What puts Apple way out front is how they’re engineered to work together so well.”

2:37PM Called the iPhone 4S “the most amazing iPhone ever.” But for how long

2:36PM Tim is back, re-capping things.

2:36PM “And that’s the iPhone 4S. Thank you.”

2:36PM On the 28th 22 more countries, and 70 countries by the end of the year. Over 100 carriers. “Fastest rollout ever.”

2:36PM Sprint gets an iPhone!

2:35PM It’ll hit US, Canada, Australia, the UK, France, Germany, and Japan. In the US it’ll be Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint!

2:35PM Pre-orders for the 4S start this friday, the 7th. Available on October 14th.

2:35PM The 3GS and iPhone 4 will live on. The 4 is now $99 for 8GB. The 8GB 3GS will be free — on contract.

2:32PM By the way, the antenna design looks like the current Verizon version, with the same basic groove placement.

2:32PM We’re still waiting for the big info: price and availability. Will this phone hit every carrier?

2:31PM Great?

2:31PM More demonstrations of Siri, including a guy booking meetings while running, Siri warning that he has a conflict. Meeting moved, dude didn’t even have to lose his stride. Now you can even work while you’re working out.

2:29PM Running down the specs again, new processor, new camera, all on a white background of course.

2:29PM “We’re really excited about the iPhone 4S.” They’ve made a video to show it off. Yeah, it’s commercial time.

2:29PM Sounds like that’s it for the iPhone 4s… Phil is giving us the run-down again. Question is: will we have one more thing?

2:28PM Works for English (US, UK, and Australia) plus French and German. It’ll be beta to start, but there’ll be more languages and services coming.

2:28PM it works out of the box, but “gets better” as it learns your voice.

2:28PM In other words: data connection most certainly required.

2:27PM Phil is back. There’s now a microphone next to the space bar in the keyboard, and you can do dictaction. It’s similar to Android, in that it’s happening remotely

2:27PM So that’s Siri, Scott’s off the stage. “And that is the coolest feature of the new iPhone 4S.”

2:06PM “That’s a lot on the camera itself, but it doesn’t stop with the camera.”

2:05PM And, five whole elements in the lens assembly — 30 percent more sharper, and it’ll go down to f/2.4!

2:05PM There’s an IR filter on there too for better, more accurate colors.

2:05PM A 60 percent boost over the iPhone 4. Phil is saying that more pixels isn’t necessarily better, but it’s a backside illuminated CMOS, so that means 73 percent more light. It’s faster, too — one third quicker.

2:04PM It is, indeed, an eight megapixel sensor. that’s 3264 x 2448.

2:04PM Apple was competing with the “many great point and shoot cameras, so it’s the one camera you really want to have with you all of the time.”

2:04PM Phil’s reminding us that the iPhone 4 is now the most popular camera for uploading pictures on Flickr. The 4S now has an “all new” camera.”

2:03PM Now, new camera.

2:03PM “That really benefits customers a lot” — particularly those who have racked up as many frequent flier miles as we have lately.

2:03PM Okay, now its network time. The iPhone 4 was of course GSM vs. CDMA. The 4S is both — GSM and CDMA.

2:02PM Why not some LTE options?

2:03PM Okay, now its network time. The iPhone 4 was of course GSM vs. CDMA. The 4S is both — GSM and CDMA.

1:39PM Documents in the Cloud means your docs get pushed as well. “My documents are updated across my devices.” Sensing a trend here…

1:38PM Now it’s photos time. “Your photos are now on your camera roll, and you wish they were on all of your devices.” Pictures go up to the cloud from your iPhone and then get shot out to all your other devices.

1:37PM Eddy’s reminding that you can download and re-download your music or media anytime and on any device.

1:37PM Having more WWDC flashbacks. Is this Moscone? What day is it?

1:36PM It’s recap time again… we’re talking iTunes in the Cloud.

1:36PM “It just works, and iCloud is free.”

1:36PM “We’ve integrated it right into our apps, so everything happens automatically.”

1:36PM Eddy Cue is up on stage now to talk about iCloud.

1:35PM Get your downloads going.

1:35PM iOS 5 drops on October 12th!

1:34PM Now Scott’s recapping the PC Free feature, so you can activate your device without plugging in. “There’s no need for a computer.” And, you can get wireless iOS updates.
